Abstract:
A two-step algorithm for conducting near real-time fuzzy searches of a target on one or more large data sets is described. This algorithm includes the simplification of the data by removing grammatical constructs to bring the target search term (and the stored database) to their base elements and then perform a Levenstein comparison to create a subset of the data set that may be a match. Then performing a scoring algorithm while comparing the target to the subset of the data set to identify any matches.
